FAQ categories:
Learn how to adjust the seats in a next-gen smart. Slide the seat forward or back by pressing in on the bar in the front of the seat, and adjust the angle of the backrest by pulling the handwheel on the right side of the seat.
In the Mercedes car2go, the controls are on the door and are in the shape of a seat. Select the button that corresponds to the area of the seat you wish to adjust. Push or pull the buttons to move the seat towards the desired direction.
No- your dash may glow, but that doesn't mean your lights are on. If in a smart car2go, make sure to twist the knob with the headlights icon all the way counterclockwise (away from you) before driving at night! To confirm they are on, the green headlight icon will display on the dash.
In a Mercedes-Benz car2go, turn the headlight button to Auto.
If you booked a car2go package and your package time expires, you'll pay the car2go package price plus the minute rate for each additional minute of your car2go rental.
Each package option includes a specified mileage amount which you can view on the car2go app. Regardless of trip duration, once the allotted mileage limit of your car2go package or minute rate is reached, you'll pay $0.45 + taxes for each additional mile.
Trip packages can be selected at any time during the 30 min. reservation period. Packages cannot be purchased or modified once you have entered the vehicle.

Sorry! Once you have set your username at registration it cannot be changed.
Since you never know when another car2go member will use the car next, a trip should never be ended in a time-restricted parking space regardless of when the time restriction begins or ends.
Time restricted parking areas include valet zones, commercial zones, customer service zones and no parking zones.
For more details on parking restrictions, check your location's parking page.
No, unfortunately not. You may only park in a garage if you're in stopover mode, or if the garage has designated spaces marked with a car2go sign. This ensures that all members can locate the car2go easily. Nobody likes to walk around aimlessly looking for their car2go.
Unless otherwise marked, car2gos must be parked parallel to the curb. Even though a car2go may fit, parking perpendicular to the curb is illegal and may result in a parking citation.
Unfortunately not. We approve each member individually for insurance purposes.
If you know someone who wants to use car2go, please have them register and drive using their own account.
If you would like to have two accounts bill to the same account (e.g. for family members) you can log into your account on our website and add a Co-Driver.
A Co-Driver is someone you trust that you invite to share payment and/or share recent trip history with. You can add a Co-Driver from your online account.
Sharing is caring and many car2go members use the vehicles, so please do not smoke inside a car2go (this includes e-cigarettes). If you smoke in the car, there's a $100 fine (+taxes).
Yes, car2gos are able to go on the interstate without a problem - give it a try!
Canada: Members in Vancouver and Montreal are now permitted to cross the US border and travel up to a maximum of 300 km from the Home Area. Note that you must still return the vehicle to the same Home Area you started your trip when you are ready to end your trip. Members are not allowed to cross provincial borders.
USA: Members in Seattle are now permitted to cross the Canadian border into BC and travel up to a maximum of 200 miles from Seattle. Note that you must still return the vehicle to the Seattle Home Area to end your trip.

Sure! car2go credit is applied automatically to trips charged on your default payment profile. This includes trip packages.
No, at this time you are unable to use your Ventra card with car2go.
Yes- the smart fortwo and Mercedes-Benz car2go models feature highly efficient restraint systems that meet Mercedes-Benz's passive safety standards. Please note that children in a rear-facing car seat may never be seated in the front passenger seat. If you are traveling with a child in a rear facing car seat it is recommended you use a Mercedes-Benz car2go so they may ride in the back seat.
Infant or child restraint systems (booster, infant or child seat) can be affixed properly to the seat by means of the safety belt. A ratchet mechanism locates the tightly pulled safety belt and holds the infant/child restraint system in position.
An electronically controlled system will detect the weight of the occupant on the passenger seat or the installation of a child restraint system. The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) determines the appropriate mode of the dual stage, full-size front airbag deployment. For very young passengers, for whom an airbag deployment could mean a serious risk, the front and side airbags will be deactivated. A control lamp in the center of the roof panel will show this clearly.
Always check the control lamp to make sure the airbags are deactivated for very young passengers. It should be glowing and say "passenger side airbag off."
Pets are allowed to ride in car2go vehicles only if they are secured in airline-approved pet carriers. Charges can be applied if there is fur left in the vehicle.
Yes. All damage must be reported at the start of the trip to avoid liability. Minor damage can be reported via email (please send us pictures where applicable), while major damage should be reported and the team will prompt you if the car should be taken out of service.
Flat tire? Report flat tires before or during a trip to 877-488-4224 and we will help you locate another vehicle. Never drive on a flat tire as you can be held liable for any extended damages.
Nope! You are not required to reserve a car2go – simply walk up to any available vehicle and go.

If you're in a new next-gen car or a Mercedes-Benz car2go , once you've reached your destination:
1. Place the key back into the holder. Note that key placement differs by car model- see the question "Where is the key located?" for more information.
2. Grab your stuff, exit the car, and close the doors.
3. If everything looks good (windows up, lights off, etc.), tap "End Rental" in the app. Once the countdown is done, you'll receive a pop-up on the app alerting you that your rental was ended successfully. See ya later!
During registration, a check mark will appear next to the "Promotion Code" field indicating the entered promo code is valid.
All of the new Mercedes-Benz vehicles are outfitted with the latest car2go technology, which means you'll be able to begin and end your rentals seamlessly within the car2go app. These vehicles will be marked with a smartphone-only icon in our app, and you can use the filter function to locate all available Mercedes-Benz car2gos in your area.
When starting your trip you'll find that the key is now stored in the glovebox. Ending your trip is a bit different too. You'll need to return the key – blue keychain first – into the slot in the box in the glove compartment just like you found it when you started your trip, and then EXIT the vehicle. Once outside the vehicle, simply tap "End Rental" in the app to end your rental.
Watch the new rental process here.
car2go credit is applied automatically to trips charged on your default payment profile, which must be selected in the app when starting your trip. Credit is valid in the country in which they were issued (so if you receive credit in Montreal, you can use them in Vancouver, but not Austin), and is also automatically used to pay for the Driver Protection Fee, airport fee, and other charges that occur during a rental. Tickets, tows, and any other fines that are not part of a regular car2go rental cannot be paid for with car2go credit.

For example, if you have $10 in car2go credit on your account, and the cost of your trip is $8.00 including taxes and other fees, your invoice total will be $0.00 and you will have $2.00 in car2go credit remaining.
car2go credit can be used to cover the cost of packages and other trip-related charges, such as the Driver Protection Fee or airport fees. car2go credit can be applied to trips in any car2go city in the country in which the credit is granted.
Please note: car2go credit can take some time to show up on your account, has an expiry date, cannot be applied to previous trips, is only available on your default payment profile (selected during the rental process in the app), and cannot be used by other drivers or other payment profiles on your account. You can monitor those details in your account by logging in on the website or in the app.
A vehicle may not be used for more than 24 hours unless you have selected a Trip Package for a longer duration. If going on a longer trip, be sure to pick a package with the appropriate time allotment and mileage. If your package time expires, you'll pay the car2go package price plus an additional fee for each additional minute of your car2go rental – check the rate page for your car2go city for details. Similarly, once the mileage limit of your car2go package is reached, you'll pay $0.49 + taxes for each additional mile / kilometer for the entire duration of your trip.
Each time you receive credit, it is valid for 30 days, unless otherwise stated. You can check the expiry date of your credit in the app or on the website.
Note: Credit is only valid in the country in which it was issued and can only be redeemed on your default payment profile. Credit cannot be redeemed by co-drivers.

Don't forget that all car2gos must be parked according to each Home Area's parking rules or in designated car2go parking.

Once you've located your car2go:
1. Open your app
2. Select the vehicle
3. Enter your 4-digit PIN

For the most part, trips will start and end smoothly for yourself and the next passenger, however, there are some costs occasioned by improper use. These fees are designed to keep the service running smoothly for everyone in the community. This way, everybody benefits in the end.
As you may have heard, car2go has joined forces with carsharing player DriveNow to become SHARE NOW. It's kind of a big deal, because together we'll be the world's largest carsharing provider.
In the future, this means a larger fleet, more premium cars such as BMW and MINI, and more carsharing cities around the world – all in one app.
Learn how to use the app here - it's easy!
Trip Packages are non-refundable and leftover time cannot be applied to future rentals.
You can do a stopover somewhere like a grocery store or friend's house without 'giving up' your car – simply turn off the car and take the keys with you. If you didn't book a package, the minute rate will still apply (think of it like keeping the meter running).
If you did book a package, when you make a stopover, simply take the key with you to keep your rental active. If you return the key to the holder both your rental and package will end.
You are responsible for any fines assessed during or after your trip if you improperly park the vehicle or leave it in an unauthorized area. In addition to the fines and/or tickets, you may also be responsible for car2go service fees. For more details, check out the parking rules for your city in the "Parking" section of our website or contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com (if you're in the U.S.) or firstname.lastname@example.com (if you're in Canada).
Sometimes trips take longer than planned! If your rental exceeds the time limit associated with the Trip Package, your trip will not adjust to another package, instead you'll be billed by-the-minute for the remainder of your trip.
Don't worry, car2go has support around the clock!
Call us at 877.488.4224.
Tip: try turning off Wi-Fi - it can help with any interference from surrounding networks. Next, make sure your car2go app is on the most up-to-date version, and that your phone's operating system is up to date too. Finally, you can clear the cache from the car2go app (found in your phone's settings). If that doesn't help, give us a call at [FOR US- 877-488-4224]/[FOR CA- 855-454-1002] and we can help you out!
If in a smart fortwo car2go, you will see on the gear shift that there is a +/- for manual shifting. Make sure the gear stick is all the way to the right before attempting to move to park. If you have further trouble, please give us a call and we'll help out!
If in a Mercedes-Benz car2go, press the button on the end of the gear shift. The gear shift is the lever located on the right side of the steering column.
Please make sure to always leave a car2go on-street unless it is a designated car2go parking spot.
All private, off-street parking is prohibited because it could get towed.
This includes residential driveways or garages, shopping centers, apartment or office building parking lots/garages, or paid parking lots/garages.
Parking legally on-street means using public roads within the Home Area that do not have additional signage prohibiting parking (ex: valet, taxi or pedicab zones, or commercial zones).
Be aware of parking restrictions at specific times or on specific days (ex: commuter lanes and street sweeping).
To access manual shifting, simply shift the gear all the way down, and then to the left. You will see on the gear shift that there is a +/- for manual shifting. This will alleviate the lag between gears. Tip: get up to about 20-25 mph before shifting up to 2nd. Downshifting when going up hills is a good way to get more umph, also. There is an arrow that will appear on the dash when it wants you to shift up, but the car is capable of downshifting itself when slowing down.
If you don't want anyone else to take the car2go you've been using, or if you're driving to a destination located outside of the Home Area, lock the car2go and keep the keys. This is called a Stopover.
You are charged for the entire time that you are logged in to the vehicle, even while it is parked.
A Stopover is useful for running errands or even for a quick trip to the store. Don't forget to take the keys and lock the car!
car2go provides hundreds of vehicles that can be accessed on demand. No reservations required!
Unlike traditional carsharing programs, you can make one-way trips within the designated car2go Home Area. This means that you can use the vehicle for as long as you like, without committing to a specific return time or location. You can end your trip in any authorized parking space within the car2go Home Area.
Don't worry about late return fees! With car2go, you pay as you go, and our by-the-minute pricing includes the costs for fuel, insurance, parking, and maintenance (basically, we've got you covered).
The $1 Driver Protection Fee enables car2go to charge a deductible that is under $1,000 to its members in the event that they get into an accident while driving a car2go. For each trip, a member is charged a $1 (plus taxes) surcharge. This $1 surcharge is only charged for a member's first 200 trips in 2019. Starting January 1, 2020, the fee will apply to every trip. Any member who takes 91 or more trips by the end of a calendar year will have their deductible lowered to $0. At the beginning of each new year, the trip count will rest to 0 and the deductible will be reinstated.
The car2go Home Area is our operating area in which you can begin and end your trips. You can make a stopover outside the Home Area, but you must be within the Home Area to end your trip. There is a limit for going outside of the Home Area - only up to 200 miles in the USA or 300 kilometers in Canada.
Learn more about car2go Home Area.
Every member in good standing who complies with the Trip Process and Terms and Conditions is covered while driving or renting a car2go vehicle. car2go maintains the statutory financial requirements for liability in each location where we operate, including Personal Injury Protection (PIP), if applicable, at the level required per each state.
The following insurance limits are effective as of January 1, 2017.
For Oregon, we maintain bodily injury coverage of $25,000 per person and up to $50,000 per accident, and third party property damage up to $20,000 per accident. PIP is provided at the Oregon statutory minimum.

The following are included with your membership:
Additionally, some car2go vehicles are equipped with Bluetooth technology and charging cables for your phone.
*Parking isn't always free everywhere. Some locations in the Home Area may charge an additional fee, such as airport and other special zones. Check out your local parking page for more details.
You'll be able to drive once you receive an email from us letting you know your membership has been processed. Please keep in mind that it can take 1-2 business days for processing - but it's worth the wait!
While parking is always free with us, parking rules are different for every city. You can park in any legal on-street public parking space within the Home Area that abides by the car2go parking rules. You can find all the details on your city's parking info page:
• In the next-gen smart, the key is stowed key chain fob first in its holder to the left of the steering wheel. Please note that there is a round silver button you will need to push to eject the key blade.
• In the Mercedes-Benz car2go, the key is stowed key chain tag first in its holder inside the glove compartment.
Anyone! There are just a few requirements members need to meet to be covered under our insurance. A member needs to be at least 18 years of age and have a reasonable amount of driving experience; so members cannot have a learner's permit or be a "new" driver. Also, a member must have a driver's abstract in good standing, with no alcohol- or drug-related violations. Offenses under the motor vehicle code will be examined — and their severity can negate membership.
Any one of these criteria will result in an MVR check failed:
If you would like for us to check your records again feel free to send a copy of your driver's abstract to car2go for a manual review.
Similar to other vehicles, winter driving can be tricky in a car2go.
Lucky for you, our entire fleet is equipped with Electronic Stability Programs, Anti-Lock Braking Systems, crash management systems, and full-sized airbags.
In our snowier markets, car2go vehicles include all-season tires, ice scrapers, and sometimes even heated seats! Montreal car2gos come equipped with snow tires so you're always prepared.
The car2go Android App uses the permissions listed below for the following reasons:
To improve the customer GPS location quality so that your location is as precise as possible on the map
To secure the login to the car2go app
Internet access necessary to e.g. display the available vehicles
To support the in-app drivers license revalidation
Push messaging for car2go Radar feature (incl. Baidu Push)
Fingerprint authentication when you choose to use the fingerprint instead of your car2go PIN to open vehicles
For Google Maps & Google Cloud Messaging

Tourism–Carter Cave Natural Area
The Carter Cave Natural Area is another prize of the South Cumberland Recreation Area. This area is located off the mountain along Highway 56 near the town of Sherwood.
The land was donated to the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation in 1976. The area consists of 140 acres and protects a great geological feature of the area – Lost Cove Cave.
The main entrance to the cave system is the Buggytop Cave entrance. Thomas Barr, Jr. classified it as one of the most impressive cave mouths in the state.
The mouth itself is 100 feet wide and 80 feet high and opens at the base of a 150 foot high overhanging bluff. The stream that enters here cascades from the mouth dropping 40 feet in less than 100 yards.
From the mouth of the cave, a cold draft of air blows in the summer. This draft can be felt in the creek valley nearly half a mile from the entrance.
The environment of the cave is very sensitive and visitors are asked to be careful not to disturb the environment. Rare and endangered species of salamanders and bats are found in the cave. All plants and animals in the area are protected by law, helping to preserve them for generations to come.

Zhang Wei earned a MA Creative Curating course at Goldsmiths, London. She is Founding Member and Director of Vitamin Creative Space in Guangzhou, and the shop in Beijing. She has realized a number of long-term projects and exhibitions in close collaborations with artists, as part of the research of Vitamin Creative Space. Her daily practice focuses on the shaping of different spaces - Vitamin Creative Space, the shop, Vitamin Blog, and the communities that form around Vitamin and the shop. Curating each of these different spaces, which each require different approaches and can generate different energies, challenges and opens new possibilities of making space in contemporary art and culture. Through the negotiations of independence in the Chinese context in particular, Zhang Wei's practice involves a continuous re-examination of the meaning of public space.
The links below are from our blog. I found them interesting in that they survey practices involving the daily living environment. I found that these individuals open up the complexity of our reality, while also providing some clue as to how to encounter that reality.

The dueling magician comedy Burt Wonderstone is currently filming in the magical land of mysticism that is Las Vegas, and some set photos from the pic have started to surface. Just the other day we brought you images that gave us our first look at stars Steve Carell, Olivia Wilde, and Steve Buscemi, and now we've got a glimpse of Jim Carrey's very douchey-looking magician character. Carell stars as the titular Vegas magician who loses his partner and then has to compete with a hipper magician (Carrey). In the previous set photos, Carell's character looked to be channeling David Blaine in a dangerous-looking trick. These images of Carrey evoke another popular mainstream "magician": Criss Angel.
While the premise could easily be turned into a lame, cheap joke comedy, the cast involved here compounded with the ridiculous-looking set photos have me hopeful that we're in for a really good time once Burt Wonderstone opens. Don Scardino (30 Rock) is directing, and Burt Wonderstone is set for release sometime in 2013. Hit the jump to see the set photos.

Confused About The Recent UK's VCRA Act? (2007-10-24)
The Violent Crime Reduction Act has been effective since October 1st 2007. It means that the sales, importation and manufacture of realistic imitation firearms (that airsoft guns mostly are), is illegal. Airsoft players (skirmishers) have a specific defence, so if you are registered with your local site, then you may be able to import airsoft guns legally.
If you are not registered or otherwise active yet, we would advise to get connected to other hobbyists via Arnie's Airsoft, or at your local site to get started. At Arnie's forums they also have the VCRA explained thoroughly.
These steps are for your consideration, but we can not control whether our customers are valid skirmishers or not. For this reason, we will ship items (including airsoft guns) to the UK as well, but if the order contains anything that looks like a firearm, then we kindly ask you to pay by Wire Transfer instead of Pay Pal or credit cards. We are not able to check whether you are skirmisher or not, but it is a matter between you and the UK authorities.
While we understand that shipments of airsoft guns into the UK have met with some success since October 1, we cannot guarantee delivery to you as a result of many gray areas in this new law. We are sure that within a couple months, the details of the law will be more clear. Note that this does not apply to wholesalers (we can still ship to you).
But this does not mean the end of the world! There are still over 7000 different non-gun products on our site that can fill your Airsoft needs!
So shop now and take advantage of our year-end promotional sales!
P.S. Airsoft guns become "Imitation firearms" instead of "realistic imitation firearms", if the predominant color (51% or more) is a bright yellow, blue, red, purple and so on. We can also provide a painting service for an extra charge, if you are not covered by the specific defence. An orange tip will not suffice, but the majority of the gun would have to be painted.

Late night comedy host, super PAC shepherd, presidential primary candidate… and senator?
Stephen Colbert is angling for the seat that South Carolina's Sen. Jim DeMint is vacating.
With all eyes on the state's Republican Gov. Nikki Haley, tasked with appointing a new senator to DeMint's post, the faux conservative "Colbert Report" host seemed to have plenty of support, too.
"Let's see, you want somebody young, somebody conservative, somebody from South Carolina, maybe somebody who had a super PAC…" the Charleston-bred host said on his show Thursday night.
Sound familiar?
"Now, folks, I'm not gonna sit here and say I should be South Carolina's next senator — not when so many other people are saying it for me!"
Among those other people: The New York Post, USA Today and Roll Call, he said. The Atlantic also weighed in.
"I know when I look at the U.S. Senate, I say to myself, 'You know what they could use? Another white guy,'" Colbert quipped.
He encouraged watchers to tweet at Haley why she should appoint him with the hashtag #SenatorColbert.
Haley responded to Colbert's interest with a Facebook post on Friday.
"Stephen, thank you for your interest in South Carolina's U.S. Senate seat and for the thousands of tweets you and your fans sent me," the Palmetto State governor said. "But you forget one thing, my friend. You didn't know our state drink. Big, big mistake."
Haley was referring to the pair's good-natured "Palmetto-off" on his show earlier this year, when Haley stumped him on the state drink.
U.S. & World
"I didn't realize my state was so boring," Colbert said in that interview, on learning that his state drink was milk.
Check out the clip from Colbert's Thursday night show, replete with his Senate hopes, below.

Reports are coming in that Michael J. Fox (Back to the Future — though does this man need an introduction?) is teaming up with director Will Gluck (Easy A) and writer Sam Laybourne (Arrested Development) to create a single-camera comedy that should be set to air in 2013. Though the specifics of plot are unknown, sources say that the series may be inspired by Fox's own life.
Fox has had some inspiring appearances of his own on other TV series lately, including a great Emmy-nominated turn as attorney Louis Canning on CBS's critical hit The Good Wife, as well as a brief but memorable few episodes as a version of himself on Larry David's long-running HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm. For more on Fox's upcoming show, hit the jump.
According to Vulture, industry sources are using the phrases "feeding frenzy" and "bidding war" over the idea of the series, which is currently being developed by Sony Pictures. A pilot is almost guaranteed, with the idea of a straight-to-series commitment possible (somethings that's virtually unheard of now on broadcast television).
As Vulture also points out, it's of little surprise that Fox is so popular, being one of the very few child stars to make it out of the 80s still likable, marketable and without much scandal. Further, he has not let his early-onset Parkinson's slow him down. His recent turns on other series prove he maintains the ability to connect with audiences, and moreover, does so with flare. Wherever his series ends up (he's had relationships with several of the major networks before, so there's no clear preference from an outsider perspective), it's unlikely to be anything less than must-see television.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Tim Duncan had 26 points and 10 rebounds and the San Antonio Spurs, recharged after a weeklong layoff, wore down the busy Los Angeles Clippers to win Game 1 of their Western Conference semifinals series, 108-92 on Tuesday night.
Playing for the sixth time in 11 days, Los Angeles gave San Antonio its toughest first half of the playoffs before fading fast. And unlike their stunning Game 1 comeback at Memphis in the first round, the Clippers didn't have the wind this time.
Manu Ginobili added 22 points for the Spurs, who've won 15 in a row. It's the longest winning streak sustained in the NBA playoffs since the 2004 Spurs won 17 straight.
"It's the playoffs. It's going to be physical. We knew that coming in," Duncan said. "We just expected to attack the basket as much as possible."
Eric Bledsoe led the Clippers with 23 points.
Game 2 is Thursday night.
That gives the beat-up and banged-up Clippers one full day of rest — which is all the time they've had to recover between games for the past week and a half.
Los Angeles couldn't even fly home first after knocking out the Grizzlies on Sunday in Game 7 of a grueling series that had the Clippers hobbling next to Texas. Blake Griffin scored 15 points in 28 minutes a day after estimating his sprained left knee had him feeling "80 percent" at best.
The Clippers said the injury is bad enough that their All-Star and leading scorer might be missing up to two weeks if this were the regular season. But unlike in Game 7 on Sunday, Griffin didn't take a seat in the fourth quarter until the Spurs were safely ahead in the final minutes.
Rookie Kawhi Leonard added 16 points, hitting all three of his 3s, and Danny Green added 15 points for the Spurs.
The marquee matchup of the series — All-Star point guards Tony Parker and Chris Paul — was a fizzle. Paul, who ended the first round with an aching hip, scored just six points and didn't make a single basket in the second half. Parker had seven points and 11 assists.
Caron Butler scored 15 points and Nick Young had 13 for the Clippers. Los Angeles cut the deficit to single digits with a 10-burst in the fourth quarter before San Antonio, which hasn't lost in a month, ran away with its 11th double-digit victory during this dominating winning streak.
The Clippers didn't even need San Antonio's help getting more bumps and bruises: Mo Williams, already playing with his sore right fingers taped, took a lump on the head when teammate Reggie Evans kicked him with an errant foot after Williams fell on his back in the lane.
Williams wobbled when he tried standing, sat back down, and the Clippers burned a timeout. He never left the game, but the Clippers weren't getting any fresher.
Parker, meanwhile, finally felt the hard knocks and slow-him-down shoves that Utah repeatedly promised but never delivered in the first round. Sometimes, the All-Star looked in vain to officials when the whistle didn't blow. When that didn't work once in the first quarter, he kept jabbering about a no-call on the last possession while lining up to shoot free throws on the current one.
Popovich, pacing and sensing an impending technical foul, silenced his leading scorer.
"Tony!" Popovich snapped from the sideline. "Shoot!"
Parker waved off the NBA Coach of the Year — he was under control. But his frustrations didn't end there. He was 1 for 9 despite playing 38 minutes, scoring all but two of his points at the foul line.
Notes: Before this became the deepest Spurs team yet under Popovich, Butler said he came so close to signing with the Spurs after the lockout that he canceled a flight to San Antonio when the Clippers counteroffered. "They made a great pitch," Butler said. …Leonard finished fourth in the Rookie of the Year voting, the highest finish for a Spurs player since Ginobili finished fourth in 2003. Said Popovich: "He's done a good enough job to make me trust him to be in the starting lineup. I'm happy for him."

Open Source Access Control
The Vuvuzela project was originally meant to recreate our member welcome noise: whenever a member would strike their RFID badge, a sound of their choice would play.
It then grew into a larger effort to create an access control solution for Freeside that would have the following characteristics:
- Centralized management of groups and access rights
- Platform for easily programming actions not limited to sounds on RFID swipe
- "Secure" access control nodes
System Overview
So far, we've assembled a prototype system that works like this:
- The central server MySQL database puts our members into groups, like IT-Staff or Members
- A central server daemon generates access control lists (ACLs) from tables in a MySQL database
- These ACLs are pulled from the central server by each node, using rsync
- Each ACL is specific to a node and relay pair, and is just a table in a SQLite file
- A node is a Raspberry Pi, with an RFID reader fed into its GPIO, and a relay shield to operate up to four locks
- Logging is sent back to the server via the SQLite file, and aggregated
For example, we could attach two door locks to one node: the server room door on relay 0, and the front door on relay 1. The node named "joker" would pull down the ACLs for joker-0.db and joker-1.db from the server's /srv directory. joker-0.db has a table called "access" which is just a list of acceptable 8-character token IDs, which correspond to the RFID token IDs that are assigned to each member in the "IT-Staff" group. Likewise, joker-1.db just has the token IDs for each member of "Members" group. So, any Freeside member can get in the front door, but only IT staff can get into the server room.
In addition, we could send notification emails to the head of IT every time the server room was accessed.
If you're interested in helping out with this project, contact Alan about participating, or follow the project at:
Some other related material:
There are some possible ways to hack this system, and some counter-hacks.
One way is to swap out the SD card on the Raspi. Our plan was to put the node into an enclosure, like the kind used to lock up a thermostat. Even if the SD card is replaced, the attacker needs the right software installed plus the location of the SQLite file. Plus, we'll be putting the nodes behind the secured door.
Another attack would be to perform man-in-the-middle on rsync. We'll take a couple of measures to mitigate that, including putting the nodes on their own dedicated subnet, with firewall and routing tables that drive traffic and communication only to the centralized server.
Because the node will be on battery backup, the most viable attack is to cut-off the power and wait for the battery to die. We would likely broadcast a power failure to IT, so we'd know to come down and wait for the power to come back up. That means the internet needs to be cut-off as well. Probably a polling script could notify IT of an internet outage, so it would be 1-2 hours maximum that we wouldn't know both services were down. Since the Raspi is a low-power device, it would remain operational and keep the doors locked for several hours, at least 12+ hours.
Future Work
- Group management via LDAP and not MySQL tables
- Implement web API for managing user information
- Design plug-in system for playing sounds, email, etc.
- Manufacture integrated RFID reader and relay shield for Raspberry Pi

Ed Weir Track
Nestled between Memorial Stadium, the Hawks Championship Center and the NU Coliseum, the Huskers' outdoor track is in the very heart of Nebraska's athletic complex. Ed Weir Stadium is bordered on the south by stand-alone columns and provides a beautiful setting for home meets from its nearly 3,500 seats.
Constructed in 1975, Ed Weir Stadium celebrated its 25th anniversary with a $2 million track replacement in the spring of 2000. The facility features a Mondo synthetic rubber surface, the same surface utilized by many of the world's other top competitive sites, including Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece, which hosted the 2004 Summer Olympics and the Bird's Nest in Beijing, China, which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics.
In addition to the track upgrade, Ed Weir Stadium has also undergone several other facelifts in the past few years. Nebraska's recent additions of the Hawks Championship Center in 2005 and the Tom and Nancy Osborne Athletic Complex in 2006 have provided the track with a second indoor warm-up center, new media facility and additional restrooms and concessions areas. The track underwent a $2.33 million renovation in 2012 where the entire track base and Mondo surface were replaced.
The track facility also utilizes the nearby Hawks Championship Center as an indoor warm-up and clerking area.
During the 36-year existence of Ed Weir Stadium, Nebraska has hosted eight National Junior Olympics, a USA-USSR Junior Dual Meet, six Big Eight Outdoor Championships, one Special Olympics and one Big 12 Outdoor Championship. The Huskers also played host to the first-ever NCAA Midwest Regional Championships at the venue in 2003, and the event returned to the stadium in 2008.

A new kind of flash mob stopped traffic in Chicago's Loop this week after a group of people and children started a dance party on top of their SUV, in the middle of a busy intersection.
Police responded to disturbance calls around 1:15 p.m. Thursday at the intersection of LaSalle and Monroe Street after witnesses reported several adults and four children were on top of a Chevy Tahoe dancing in traffic, according to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Janel Sedevic.
The incident was captured on video by witnesses. The group is seen grooving to Ellie Goulding's "Lights."
U.S. & World
Police said the three adults were taken into custody and the four children were turned over to the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services.
A 59-year-old man, a 36-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman were arrested and charged with misdemeanor counts of "causing a child to be endangered."
The adults were from San Tan Valley, Ariz., Sedevic said.

First, Texans aligned behind their faithful leader, Governor Rick Perry. Then Perry dropped out, and several Texas polls showed Rick Santorum in the lead.
But with the end of Santorum's campaign and prominent Texans such as Sen. John Cornyn (and now Perry) aligning behind presumed GOP nominee Mitt Romney, Texas' Republicans have followed suit, according to a survey from Public Policy Polling done last week.
Beyond his predictable primary lead, Romney tops President Barack Obama by 7 percentage points in Texas, according to the larger survey, which sampled 591 Texans of varying political parties. Romney's margin is smaller than the 13 point lead allowing John McCain to win the state in 2008.
The most recent poll in the state showed Romney leading with 45 percent of the vote, Gingrich with 35 percent and Ron Paul with 14 percent.
(The primary match-up is academic now, with Gingrich preparing to mothball his campaign, according to numerous media sources.)
More important, the poll shows Texas Republicans warming to Romeny — albeit slowly.
In January, the state's Republicans had evenly-split feelings for Romney – 44 percent favored him and 44 percent didn't. But the survey of 400 Republicans taken last week found that now 66 percent favor him and 23 don't.
Mark P. Jones, the chairman of political science department at Rice University, said the numbers show that while Texans support Romney, they have yet to truly embrace the man whose multiple campaign gaffs have painted him as a wealthy American out of touch with many blue-collar workers.
"It's not the most enthusiastic approval, but it is approval," Jones said. "There is no one else left in the field."
Jones also pointed out that although Gingrich has stopped actively campaigning, he received a high percentage of support in the Texas poll, another sign of negative feelings toward Romney.
"Gingrich is just a vehicle to say 'I'm not all supportive of Mitt Romney,'" Jones said.
Jones also said the shift in the numbers between January and April shows how unpredictable primary season can be when candidates must establish themselves without party labels. The poll has a margin error of 4 percent overall and 5 percent for the GOP survey.

For this reason, I think that if we implement this, it should be with a cap on the number of free Classic speed games you can play per month. I do not know what the number should be. 10? 25?
In my opinion it should be a cap on speed games per day, not per month as I think that if someone were to use up their free speeders for the month they would look elsewhere having gotten used to having more or less unlimited speeders for a day or so. Either that or they would have gotten their fill completely of risk in that one day and were sated for another month. It's really a tough call as far as the number though. I think that your 25 a month guess would probably fit but you could maybe even double it if it were a daily cap.
Ok, I agree. Two per day is a better customer retention strategy.

| 14.6°C Belfast
Nearly one in six prisoners released in error in the last four years are still at large, official figures show.
A total of 148 prisoners have been released in error since May 2010 and 24 have not been put back in jail since, figures released by Justice Minister Jeremy Wright showed.
Most of them (13) were released from category C prisons, while three came from female prisons and eight remained "uncategorised".
Shadow justice secretary Sadiq Khan, who uncovered the figures using a written parliamentary question, said: "Each week brings more evidence showing David Cameron's justice system is in chaos.
"I'm astounded that 148 criminals have been wrongly released from prison on this Government's watch. But to add insult to injury, 24 of them are still on the run.
"Victims will be insulted that criminals are allowed to waltz out of jail so easily, and continue to live their lives scot free.
"Communities are being put at risk by serious and dangerous criminals walking the streets when they should be safely behind bars.
"How are the British public to trust David Cameron's Government to keep them safe when they are so terrible at the basics like keeping criminals locked up?"
In the year ending September 2013 there were 46 criminals released from jail in error, accounting for 0.06% of all discharges from prison.
Mr Wright said: "Releases in error are taken very seriously and action has been taken to tighten processes and focus managers' attention in this area. Releases in error are infrequent and all incidents are subject to investigation. The majority of prisoners released in error are returned to custody quickly."

The night of the launch, Campbell and his colleagues at the hotel boarded vans and headed to the satellite processing building. As they passed the center's main gate, they saw a crowd gathering outside to watch the liftoff. "Everybody was dressed in his or her best clothes," he recalls. "It was a party atmosphere. There were many dozens, if not hundreds, of people there." Despite the previous accidents, it seemed to Campbell that these people must have been accustomed to gathering at this spot to watch launches.
During this time, another U.S. engineer in China kept a diary. In it, he describes going for a bike ride with two other Westerners through a picturesque valley flanked by rice paddies and pastures grazed by water buffaloes. (Because he does not have permission from his company to speak on the record, he asked that neither he nor the company be named.) Just a few yards outside the space center, they had seen locals of the Yi culture going about their daily routines, seemingly unaware of the launch to come. "There was a guy sitting in front of his house weaving a basket," the engineer wrote in his diary. "Scores of villagers walked home on the dirt road as we were riding back."
After arriving at the satellite processing building, Campbell and the members of the team not directly involved in launch operations went up to the roof to watch the liftoff. The pad, behind a mountain, was out of view, but the rocket was expected to appear above the ridge moments after it cleared the launch gantry. Meanwhile, the engineer who kept a diary was inside, seated in a satellite test room, where he peered at TV screens showing pictures transmitted live from the pad. He planned to rush outside moments after liftoff to see the real rocket. "I figured I could do it in less than 10 seconds," he wrote. "I had on my bright pink ski hat. I figured it would add festivity to the launch team. Another American specialist wore his lucky shirt and put 2-yuan coins in his penny loafers for more luck.
"The satellite parameters were all good, right down to liftoff. Though the launch window opened at 2:51 [a.m.], the Chinese inserted a nine-minute hold for no reason, so as to lift off at 3:00, a luckier number. At about T-one minute, they decided they needed an extra 45 seconds. Countdown proceeded, though the clocks were all out of sync."
The rocket began to rise, and the American engineers in the satellite test room ran out the door. "I got out, turned and ran around the building to my best viewing spot, in time to see the mountain lit from behind, hear the startling rumble and see the rocket emerge," the diary reads. "But instead of rising vertically for nine seconds and several thousand feet [before starting to arc toward the east] I saw it traveling horizontally, accelerating as it progressed down the valley, only a few hundred feet off the ground. 'Wrong way!' I yelled, and for the next few seconds I was frozen in my tracks."
On the roof, Campbell and others were just as perplexed. "All of a sudden, we looked down the valley and saw this huge cruise missile flying by. Our first reaction was This is really interesting. And our next reaction was Holy shit, we need to get off the roof."
After flying for 22 seconds in the direction of the hotel and residential complex, the 426-ton vehicle crashed into a hillside, most of its propellant still on board. The overstressed payload section with the satellite inside had broken off and plunged to the ground moments earlier.
The diary continues: "It arced toward the earth and I thought I knew what was coming, but the instant of horror that is burned into memory was not anticipated. A tremendous light turned 3 a.m. into noon. Every tree on the hillside was clear as a knife edge, and the sky reflected a weird glow, a color I can not describe…. Many things happened at once. I heard the biggest explosion of my life, I turned and started to run. I saw a friend's face contorted in Oh shit! I heard a smaller and then a larger boom, I left the ground, I was on the ground, scrambling, wondering why I was down there…. I heard glass breaking and shit was flying everywhere."
Those on top of the building descended a ladder to the lower roof, and from there scrambled into the building, as the violent shock wave rioted over the facility. A large glass-enclosed entrance shattered into thousands of fragments.
After the blast wave passed, the survivors' next fear was poisonous fumes produced by the rocket's toxic fuel and oxidizer. According to Campbell, "We all went into the fueling facility [as the most secure part of the building], had the Chinese shut down all the air conditioning in case the fumes came our way, and set up detectors [for toxic substances], gas masks, and protective equipment for all our [American] people."

Texas graduation rate inches up to 78.9%, study finds
AUSTIN — A new federal study shows that Texas' four-year high school graduation rate climbed to 78.9 percent in 2009-2010, just above the national average - a stark change from previous data that suggested the state was among the country's leaders in on-time graduation.
The National Center for Education Statistics released a report on Tuesday that showed freshman four-year graduation rates statewide rose from 73.1 percent in the 2006-2007 school year to 78.9 percent in 2009-2010. Nationally, the on-time graduation rate was 78.2 percent - the highest since 1976.
However, nearly half of America's other states had four-year graduation rates higher than Texas. Vermont led the nation with a 91.4 percent rate, while Nevada was at the bottom with a 57.8 percent rate.
Nation makes gains: High school grad rate highest since '76
Among Texas Hispanic students, the on-time graduation rate for the Class of 2010 was 77.4 percent, compared with 69.4 percent for blacks and 82.8 percent for whites.
Overall, Texas' dropout rate fell to 2.7 percent for 2009-2010, compared with 3.2 percent the year before. Nationally, the dropout rate was 3.4 percent for the 2009-10 school year, according to the study.
The federal statistics center, which collects and analyzes school data from state and local officials, is run though the U.S. Department of Education.
Tuesday's findings were not as stellar as separate Education Department data released in November that showed Texas' four-year graduation rate was 86 percent for the Class of 2011. That mark tied the state with five others for the nation's third-best high school graduation rate - and left top education officials crowing.
Federal officials arrived at the November number using a new data reporting system designed to make it easier to compare results across the country.
Texas, which adopted the reporting system several years ago, posted a four-year graduation rate of 86 percent for the Class of 2011, the same as Tennessee, New Hampshire, Indiana, Nebraska and North Dakota. That was a single percentage point behind Vermont and Wisconsin, and Iowa led the nation with 88 percent.
The November numbers were consistent with data from the Texas Education Agency, which reported in August that the four-year graduation rate statewide had reached an all-time high of 85.9 percent for the Class of 2011.

"Quit hiding, it's embarrassing," actor rages at President

Prison Planet.com
Friday, February 25, 2011
Amidst the controversy of his wild interview on the Alex Jones Show yesterday, actor Charlie Sheen wasted little time in confronting President Barack Obama on his failure to answer Sheen's twenty questions concerning 9/11, calling Obama, "a coward in a cheap suit."
In September 2009, Sheen produced a special video message in which he addressed Obama, along with a list of questions pertaining to contradictions in the official story of 9/11. Sheen's argument was centered around the fact that six of the ten 9/11 commissioners have publicly stated that the government agreed not to tell the truth about 9/11 and that the Pentagon was engaged in deliberate deception about their response to the attack.
"It's still topical, it's a timeless message, it's still right there in the fold," said Sheen of his 20 Minutes With the President campaign.

The actor then unloaded on Obama for failing to acknowledge or respond to Sheen's questions.
"I would say to B.O. – how much faith can I possibly have in you to run this entire country when 20 questions from a high school drop out sitcom actor appears to be too much to handle for you and your staff," said Sheen, adding that Obama had failed to respond in nearly two years since the actor produced his video message.
"You sir are obviously a coward in a cheap suit….quit hiding, it's embarrassing," added Sheen.
"I think somebody is running at him with a tape recording of what I just spoke saying 'they're on to us men – he's back, we thought he was dead'", joked Sheen.
Watch the clip below for Sheen's comments.

Senior Thesis (PSYC 396)
What is it?
A senior thesis is a limited study examining a student's own researchable hypothesis in consultation with one or more department members. Students will meet regularly with their individual research supervisors to share progress reports, get help with problems, and so forth. Minimum requirements for all projects include: a final report in APA format, and presentation of the project at the annual undergraduate psychology conference; the advisor may, at his/her discretion, and depending upon the individual project, require additional conferences, oral reports, or other documentation.
What are the benefits?
The senior thesis can be taken for 1 to 4 credits depending upon the nature of the individual project and the student's contractual arrangements with the faculty research supervisor. Four credit projects fulfill the senior psychology capstone requirement.
Who is eligible?
Junior and senior psychology majors who have completed research methods, have been admitted into the major, and have completed at least 20 credits in psychology. Students may enroll in senior thesis only during the fall semester and must have the signature of the senior thesis director prior to registering and again after completing the proposal and obtaining the proposal and obtaining the faculty moderator's signature.
What do I need to do to take advantage of this opportunity?
Students considering signing up for senior thesis during a fall semester should meet with a faculty moderator during the previous spring, prior to registering for the course. The student must at least decide upon a general topic of interest and find a psychology faculty member willing to act as the student's research supervisor during the fall. Beyond a general topic of interest, it is even more desirable for the student to have some preliminary ideas about a specific question and a way to answer it. The student and the research supervisor together will come to an agreement on the number of credits a project is worth.
How is an All College Thesis different from a Senior Thesis?
Although an All College Thesis and a Senior Thesis both involve extensive research on an original research question and both fulfill the capstone requirement, the two opportunities have some key differences.
- An All College Thesis is through the honors department and completing the project with an "A" allows a student to graduate with distinction in the major. A Senior Thesis is through the department alone and is not associated with this graduation honor.
- Students completing an All College Thesis need to have a faculty supervisor and two faculty readers for their thesis. Students completing a Senior Thesis require only a single faculty supervisor.
- All College Thesis students are required to formally defend their thesis to their committee. This is not a requirement for the Senior Thesis although often students completing both types of projects make other presentations at small conferences such as MUPC or Scholarship and Creativity Day.

It is naive to believe banning guns will reduce the crime incidence by criminals and terrorists. In my hometown of Corning, baseball bats and knives are the preferred gang weapons, the Middle East terrorists use airplanes to destroy the World Trade Center and damage the Pentagon, guns were used in a number of schools, and last month a nurse, her boyfriend and his brother used a microwave oven and a timer to destroy their natural-gas-filled home to totally destroy 30 homes, damage 80 homes and kill two innocent neighbors.
These incidents were mostly committed by the mentally ill, no longer required to be in mental institutions, but also for gang warfare, for Muslim religious wars, and for city gang wars. There is no limit to the types of weapons used.
Criminals will always find a weapon. It makes no sense to remove weapons from the law-abiding, leaving only armed criminals.
Society needs to address the sickness of America, including President Barack Obama's last four years of class warfare opposing those who made responsible education and lifetime savings choices.

At first glance, the new restaurant inside Hyatt Regency Louisville appears to be another sleek addition to the city, but spend five minutes inside Sway, and you'll quickly understand the aptly named locale is that – and far more.
Sway – which is short for "Southern Way†– features stacked wood and earth tones, and large glass walls that slide open onto the Fourth Street side of the hotel, giving diners prime people-watching access, an opportunity to interact with passersby and radiant outdoor lighting. Each glass table votive was blown at nearby Glassworks, which adds a nice touch. "We're keeping it local all the way from the hot sauce to the candle holders,†said General Manager Donna Marquez.
The amicable staff is incredibly knowledgeable, and what they don't know they'll offer to find out right away, regardless of whether your question is about the culinary options or something completely random (I asked about an upcoming bodybuilding contest that will occur nearby in the next few weeks).
Aside from the hospitality, what sets Sway apart – and gives its moniker meaning – is the food, a delicious array of appetizers and entrees that are best described as classic Southern foods served with creativity courtesy of Chef David Barrett.
Starters range from Deviled Eggs ($7) made with Mariah Smokehouse Bacon to Fried Green Tomatoes ($7) to Home-Style Chicken and Flat Dumpling Soup ($5) to Fried Pork Rinds ($7) served fresh and crackling with Blue Grass Red Hot Sauce.
Entrees include a Smothered Pork Chop ($26) made with locally raised pork, vidalia onions, natural broth, snap peas and pan-fried; Shrimp and Grits ($19); and perhaps the crown jewel of the menu, Southern Fried Chicken ($20) served with creamy mashed potatoes and natural gravy.
Chef Barrett was reticent to divulge too much about his chicken, but he did say he credits a mix of spices and preparing the poultry fresh for the many satisfied customers. In fact, he's often offered to purchase the meal himself if the diner is unhappy with the dish. Thus far, has he had to shell out the cash? "Not once since we opened the third week in April,†he smiled. "Haven't had to buy one yet.â€
Sway's menu also features healthy fare, like Sustainable Salmon ($22) and several salads, along with a 12 ounce NY Strip Steak ($22) and a number of sweet treats. If you must try only one, go for the Tagalong Ice Cream Sundae ($8) made from Girl Scout Cookies baked right here in Louisville.
Bar offerings are many and bourbon lovers will appreciate the selection. The selection of draft beer isn't massive, but you'll find everything from Coors Light ($4) to New Albaniana Hoptimus IPA ($4.50) to Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale ($5) to Upland ($4.50).
Edibles aside, my favorite selection on the menu is – hands down – the Tableside Novelteas ($3). Try your choice of Raspberry-Pomegranate, Peach or Strawberry. At about 60 calories apiece, alcohol-free and refreshing as can be, this is one drink in which you can indulge without guilt.
Sway is open weekdays 6:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. for breakfast; 11:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. for lunch; and 5 to 10 p.m. for dinner. The restaurant is open Saturday and Sunday 7 a.m. to noon for breakfast; noon until 2 p.m. for lunch; and 5 to 10 p.m. for dinner. The bar area of Sway is open noon until midnight seven days a week.

A bad sign? In the semifinals of Queen's Club on Friday Andy Roddick was absolutely drubbed by Andy Murray, 6-3, 6-1. Should the American worry? He doesn't think so. "Everything he touched turned to gold," Roddick said after the match. "He played great. I felt like I hit the ball well." But no matter what the American said, it couldn't have felt great to be run off the court by Murray after his long layoff, that saw Roddick miss the French Open. Should Roddick take special meaning in his loss to the world no. 4? Tell us below.
